Explorer here. I got the phone one week ago from Xiaomi Malaysia.

I got the Snapdragon 650 variant @ 32gb storage & 3gb ram.

Loved the battery, 4,050mAh. Easily last for 1 day with screen time of 5 hours plus. I don't use it for games though, I am more to camera, Web browsing, email, social media and music.

Beautiful full HD1080 IPS LCD screen and with aluminium body, it's great! I am using a gold colour and the matte finish feels good! Not finger prints magnet though.

Just for you know, this is the first xiaomi phone with full aluminium body and the finger print sensor. For me, the finger print sensor is at the sweetest spot. I can unlock the phone while holding it without having another hand. It unlocks pretty much less than a second and supports up 5 fingers. Did 2 of mine and 1 for my wife.

The camera produce relatively good photos in a daylight setting. It struggles in lowlight though. Alas, at the price you are paying, this is good.

I can't comment much about the overheat because of my experience has been good so far. The only time I notice heat from the back of the phone when I was taking outdoor photos. It was in the afternoon under the hot sun.. so, it could be from the weather itself? I am not sure. It wasn't bad that it didn't bother me at all, the weather did though!

The video, comes with slow motion and time lapse function. The slow motion is pretty impressive if you ask me. Slow motion up to 120fps, awesome ain't it? The thing is, you can only do slow motion at 720p. Even with 720p, the quality is still reasonably good! I was amazed by the quality.

The phone has a hybrid sim; 1 main micro sim and another exchangeable nano sim or micro sd up to 128gB. Good for those who loves to download or store stuff on their phones.

I will be writing my review soon, I will post it somewhere here! Thanks.
